Summing up

There is a global trend towards growing more food in stable, resilient forest-like eco-systems. Never before has it been so easy for people to understand the many and diverse benefits of this type of food production.

This hui is intended to support you to understand the approaches to food forest design, and working with community groups, private small-holding owners, or farmers looking to establish commercial food forests. Walk away from this event confident you can go out and obtain a yield from the work you undertake in this area, supported by a growing community of food forest practitioners.
